Snippet #1587962

"Well, you already know me," Isaac started, leaning back into his plush seat and crossing his legs. "I'm a hydrokinetic; that is, I can control water. I wouldn't worry too much about my combat readiness, though. We're in my element, seeing as there's about ten inches of thick snow as far as the eye can see." Phoenix nodded and thought about that for a moment.

"You can be very useful. I'll keep the heat off your ass if you keep the cold off of mine and we should be a force," that thought made Phoenix smirk a little. That would make Gallagher choke when he used his water based weapons and the next thing he knew it was going back at him. "Alright, next?" The ghoul was the next to speak up.

"Well, for starters I can digest any material, even the stuff that's normally toxic or poisonous to... other people." He demonstrated this by getting a half-eaten brick from his satchel and finishing it off in two bites. "I can also fit into small spaces without experiencing any discomfort and my body heals at an astounding rate. There's probably more, but that's all I've discovered so far," he said with an air of modesty. Nodding slowly Phoenix digested that in her mind, her red eyes locked into an empty space.

"If you can get up close that'll be great. And damaging but stay away from their razor wires. Unless you can reattach severed limbs," she said watching him closely. By the pause she took that as a no.

"Phoenix!"

"Son of a bitch!" Phoenix roared and shot to her feet. Someone else was failing at the subtlety thing. They had to be blown soon. That was when she heard the fizzle and click of a radio. Phoenix's eyes dilated and her heart sped up. "Everyone, move now!" she screamed and spread her wings out wide forcing them towards the window that was her many entrance. Behind her Phoenix heard the sound of boots crunching with snow. The pattern was too erratic for her to get a good count as to how many were coming but it seemed to be an outrageous amount. Turning towards the far wall Phoenix threw her hands forward and a blast of flames erupted from her hands the same instant there was a loud Boom! as a rocket made contact with the wall. Phoenix's flames were powerful enough to push back the flames of the rocket, but debris still flew by, one piece catching her shoulder and drawing blood. "Move now!" Phoenix turned and carefully aimed over the others heads with her uninjured arm and a tiny focused ball of flames grew in her palm. When she released it it slammed into the window with enough force to allow for a quicker exit. "Isaac, cool off the ground or it'll burn you!"

From the other wall Phoenix could hear more then two dozen men talking and the clicked and whirrs of their weapons then she heard one speak into his radio. "Gallagher. We found her nest."
